Smile Someone should make an online store

Lol... seriously....

Im sure they could bring in some money. I mean yea the items would cost $5-10 more than at wally world but atleast you could choose tires, battery, 1:18 jeep/scorpion, or 1:6 jeep scorpion. And in all colors too... Id do it if I had the money, sadly I dont.

Just a thought

problem is, whats the chances of someone being able to go to their local Wally World and pick up enough of each item to open an online store? i mean, they would need to buy at least 15-20 of each item to start out....i cant even find one crawler, much less 15 or more

dunno though, maybe if someone had the money and had a conversation with the manager at their local walmart, they could get them to order as many as they wanted....who knows....

or maybe they could just call the company that makes them and go through them instead of wal-mart

I believe if Funrise had delayed the selling of the Nylint for another year and use that time for more R&D, they would've come across the weaknesses of the nylint and improved them before release. This way, they weren't so backed up with returns, exchances, repairs, etc and could've produced alot more of these. If this had happened, i'm sure there would be some stores online as we speak. Just not enough toys being made and too much demand.

Guys,
Here is an update. Right now I am in the negotiation stage with FunRise to carry their products in an online enviroment. I am not sure if this would be through my site (www.scalehobbies.com) or if it would be a seperate site for the Nylint specifially. It looks like I will have to purchase alot of stock, so you guys better be ready to buy some stuff
Is there anything specifially you want me to sell, or just a variety of everything?
Thanks
Matt

See if you can get parts seperately like remotes, tires, bodies, axles, circuit boards, batteries, etc...if not, the entire chassis will give u good business too

Default nylint store stuff

just a thought... but I would buy a hard-top if someone made one. A steel roll-cage would be pretty sweet as well . . . I would build one if I had work space and some tools... and if I knew how to bend tubes well.
